Borderlands Fuzz Fiesta Brings a Full Line-Up of Stoner Rock to Tucson

For those of you who look at festival line-ups and think "there just isn't enough stoner rock on the bill for me," Borderland Fuzz Fiesta will be just the event you've always dreamt of.

To kick off the fest's inaugural event, you can expect bands with totally sick names like Skulldron, Yeti Ender, Conqueror Worm and Methra. Fireball Ministry, Wo Fat and Mos Generator will be headlining this year's fiesta, as well.

Ran by Wayne Rudell, frontman of both Powered Wig Machine and Fuzz Evil, the musician and booker said in a statement that putting on a festival dedicated to the genre that he both loves to play and listen to has always been a dream for him. He plans on many Fuzz Fiestas to come.

"We really feel that fans of this music would appreciate this event and will hopefully get behind it in the time to come, we’re going to be striving to make the Borderland Fuzz Fiesta bigger and better every year,” Rudell said.

You can catch all of that muddy, droney, sludgy and, yes, fuzzy action as part of the Borderland Fuzz Fiesta at The Rock, located at 136 North Park. Tickets for the event, which begins on Saturday, Feb. 21 at 5 p.m., are $20 the day of the show and $15 in advance through Ticket Leap.
